I am really new at this and I just have a quick question. I have obtained a 1773 4 reale coin from my Mother-in-law. It is very nice condition. I understand that this coins were used much like the modern day travelers check. Can any one give me any idea on what this coin may be worth???? I have about 300 coins I will need to catalog and research. This being the oldest, I figured I would start here.

We could probably help you out on every one of your coins but we would have to see some pictures or at least scans. __________________ Betting money on horses is a sucker's game -George Raft   07-06-2009, 02:31 AM   #3 (permalink) De Orc P & R COMMISSAR     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: London. UK Posts: 8,131 My Mood: Morning Wade and welcome to CoinTalk as Eddie says a pic or scan would be invaluble as coin values depend quite a lot on condition of the coin also from a coin a person might spot something that you do not mention when trying to discribe it LOL __________________ My Notes 1176 to date 02/06/09 http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=De-Orc My Coins 2168 to date 02/06/09 http://www.omnicoin.com/?collection=De-Orc   07-06-2009, 02:36 AM   #4 (permalink) andy21us Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: TX Posts: 1,139 My Mood: Welcome to the Forum Wade!
